    Yeah the best manual I ever read was for https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunship_(video_game), it was amazing. A thick manual explaining so much about the military helicopter and how it worked. Was thrilling to read as a kid.

    I don’t remember the graphics being so bad though…:) But it’s pretty shit by today’s standards.

      For PC in 1986, those are pretty good graphics. Arcades were where the best graphics were back then.

          I’m using PC in the literal “personal computer” sense. I don’t recall PC = Microsoft being a thing back then, though I may be wrong.
